Шаблон:Infobox television season The second series of Sky One comedy-drama television series Brassic began broadcasting on 7 May 2020. Joe Gilgun, Michelle Keegan, Damien Molony, Tom Hanson, Aaron Heffernan, Ryan Sampson, Parth Thakerar, Steve Evets, Anthony Welsh and Dominic West reprised their roles from the first series, while Ramon Tikaram and Bronagh Gallagher joined the main cast.[1] The second series consisted of six episodes, which were broadcast on a weekly schedule, though all episodes were prematurely released entirely on the premiere date through the Sky television streaming service.[2] The series concluded on 11 June 2020.
Brassic follows the lives of Vinnie (Gilgun) and his five friends who live in the fictional northern English town of Hawley. The working class group commit various crimes in order to survive, but as they get older, some of them begin to wonder whether they wouldn't be better off away from town.[3] The second series follows up from the previous series, in which Vinnie faked his own death in order to avoid torture from "businessman" Terence McCann (Ramon Tikaram).
